What To Pop In A Tank.....

[Tammy2080]

i have a 38 gal tank and so far have 1 feather fin syni fully grown 3 clown loaches and a large sailfin pleco

im thinking of popping in pictus, dwarf chichlids, angels goumis and a ghost knife

will they all be ok together?

tank is full of bogwood will soon have plants in and has sand at the bottom

With the size of that tank I would say not at the moment.

It's not suitable for the clown loaches or sailfin pleco long term.

If it's at least 15" high then the angels will be fine but you may find you have problems with agression if you have more than 2, and one or two gouramis should be fine (depending what types).

It's no where near big enough for a ghost knife.

As for compatibility they all look safe with eachother, it really is just a case of getting the right sized fish for the space you have available to avoid problems for you and the fish.

the tank is 4 ft buy a foot and a half is that still too small

i made him a tunnel

i know the sail fin is probablys going to have to get a new home soon is is getting large, im sticking to bristle noses from now on they stay little

It's still too small for the ghost knife, clown loaches and plec long term. Sorry
There isn't going to be any super rush for you to re-home the current fish (they should be fine anywhere up to the 6-8" mark by my guesstimate. But I definitely wouldn't buy the ghost knife with the plan to re-home it.
